The investigation into an alleged theft ring headquartered at a three-building complex on Crawley Road near Orchard Hill continues to expand after additional stolen items were found, according to sheriff Brad White.

“There were a couple of welders out there. We knew they were there. We saw them. We didn’t know they were stolen. As all this was going on, someone went out there and stole them again. So, we got additional warrants and went out there and seized everything. It will take quite some time to go through it all,” the sheriff said.
